This application is a division of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/039,373 filed on Jun. 18, 1993.
The present invention relates to novel benzoyl urea derivatives having a pryzole group which have active insecticidal properties as an insect growth regulator. The present invention also relates to insecticidal compositions comprising these derivatives and to the use of such compositions for killing and controlling insects.
Several kinds of benzoyl urea compounds have been developed as chitin inhibitors since Dimilin® was introduced in the market. However most of them have not been commercialized due to their complicated manufacturing processes and high costs even though they have a better effect than Dimilin®. For example, even though several benzoyl urea derivatives have been synthesized according to the disclosed Japanese Patent laid-open Nos. 85-193960 and 87-178561, and European Patent Nos. 176868 and 52833, these manufacturing processes are too complicated to be improved.
Therefore, with consideration to the foregoing points the present inventors have developed new insecticidal compounds which exhibit broad spectrum and powerful insecticidal activities towards various harmful insects.
Furthermore, they can be prepared via a simple process starting from readily available raw chemicals as compared with existing chitin inhibitor insecticides.
An object of the present invention is to provide powerful benzoyl urea derivatives with strong insecticidal activities toward various harmful insects and having a simple manufacturing process utilizing raw materials of low cost.
Another object is to provide insecticidal compositions containing active compounds of those derivatives.
The present invention is directed to benzoyl urea derivatives having a pyrazole group which correspond to the following formula(I) ##STR2## wherein.
R and R2, are the same or different, and are hydrogen, one or more halogen atoms selected from the group consisting of fluorine, chlorine and bromine atoms, a lower alkoxy group or a nitro group:
R1 is a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group; and
X is a lower alkyl group or phenyl substituent.
In the present invention, the terms "lower alkoxy group" and "lower alkyl group" designate a straight or branched chain alkoxy and alkyl groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms.
According to a first embodiment of the present invention, the above benzoyl urea derivatives can be easily prepared by converting substituted benzamide derivatives of the following formula(II) to benzoyl isocyanate of the following formula(III) using oxaryl chloride or phosgene and reacting the compound of formula(III) with anilin derivatives of the following formula(IV) and an acid scavenger. ##STR3## wherein, R, R2 and X are defined as above: and R1 is a hydrogen atom.
In the above reaction, organic solvents such as benzene, toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene or 1,2-dichloroethane can be used for the reaction from substitutied benzamide derivatives of formula(II) to benzoyl isocyanate of formula(III), and then completion of the reaction is assumed when no more gas is produced. Toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene or 1,2-dichloroethane can be used as a solvent for obtaining the desired compound(I) by reacting isocyanate of formula(III) with anilin derivatives of formula(IV), and then 0.5∼1 equivalent weight of tertiary amine, e.g. triethyl amine, is used as an acid scavenger.
If the acid scavenger is not added, the yield will be decreased due to coexisting hydrochloride which is produced during the formation of the isocyanate(III). The reaction for the formation of the desired compound(I) is complete when no more anilin derivative remains. This can be easily checked by T.L.C. or G.C.
After completion of the reaction, the desired compound may be separated by well-known methods as follows: the solid compound is obtained by recrystallization after filteration, and the remaining filtrate is washed with water to remove organic solvents, and then the desired compound can be obtained by recrystallization or purified by chromatography and identified by NMR, IR and MS.
Accordingly to a second embodiment, the desired compound(I) can be produced by reacting anilin derivatives of formula(IV) with phosgene to obtain isocyanate of the following formula(V) and adding benzamide derivatives of formula(II) and acid scavenger, according to following reaction scheme. ##STR4## wherein, R, R2 and X are defined as above: and R1 is a hydrogen atom.
In the above reaction, ethylacetate, tetrahydrofuran, benzene, toluene, chlorobenzene, xylene or 1,2-dichloroethane can be used as organic solvent for obtaining the isocyanate compound(V) from the anilin derivatives of formula(IV). The reaction is assumed to be complete when no more hydrogen chloride gas is produced.
Also, toluene, xylene or chlorobenzene can be used as an organic solvent for the reaction of the isocyanate derivatives(V) with the benzamide derivatives(II), and then tertiary amine such as triethylamine can be used as an acid scavenger.
The reaction is assumed to be complete when no more compound of formula(II) remains. The identification of reaction completion, yield and the desired compound is the same as in the above first method.
According to the present invention an alkyl group can be introduced at the R1 position of the desired compound of formula(I) (R1 ═H) by using alkylating reagent. For example, the compound(I), where R1 is an alkyl group, can be produced by treating methyliodide or ethyliodide with the compound of formula(I)(R1 ═H) and an acid scavenger.
Acetonitrile, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide may be used as the organic solvent and hydroxides of alkali metal or alkali earth metal, carbonate or tertiary amine may be used as the acid scavenger. The reaction is assumed to be complete when no more compound of formula(I)(R1 ═H) remains, and this can be easily checked by T.L.C. or G.C. After completion of the alkyl substitution reaction, several processes can be applied to obtain the desired compound from the reaction mixture. For example, after washing the reaction mixture with water to remove the used organic solvent, the desired compound can be obtained by recrystalization or chromatography, and it can be confirmed by NMR, IR and MS.
Typical new benzoyl urea derivatives of formula(I) according to the present invention are listed in Table 1.

To demonstrate the superior effect of the compounds which were prepared in accordance with the present invention, test solutions with 500 ppm were prepared for the first insecticidal tests unless otherwise specified.
The insecticidal rates (%) were calculated from these solutions. In the case of an insecticidal rate of 100%, the concentration of the test solution was gradually reduced until the LC50 value, namely the concentration (ppm) which gives an insecticidal rate of 50%, was determined.
This test is illustrated by the following examples, but should not be construed to be limited thereto.
PAC Insecticidal test for Diamond-backmothDiamond-backmoths (Plutella Xylostella Linnaeus) were successively reared using cabbage, and the third instar larvae thereof were tested. For the insecticidal test, a piece of cabbage leaf 9 cm in diameter was dipped in a test solution for 30 minutes and air-dried for 30 minutes. The dried piece of cabbage leaf was put in a petri dish, and 10 of the third instar larvae were inoculated therein. The petri dish was capped and placed in a incubator. At 120 hours after 24 hours, the number of killed moths was examined to determine the insecticidal rate(%), and then the tested cabbage leaf was replaced with a new one every 48 hours.
The results are shown in Table 4.
